Thank you ladies
i am feeling better and stronger after getting it out there and your reassurances and those of my DH have helped me put everything back into perspective. She honestly thinks she's helping and i need to make it clear that i'm doing ok and while i appreciate her advice on some things, she's over stepped the mark.
It has made me look hard at myself, and realise that maybe to her i seem stressed a lot, but some of that is HER! Other people who know me away from her, think i cope well. I don't want to be the sort of parent she is, but feel she judges everything by her standards. And my Mum would say something if she thought i was in trouble and couldn't see it myself!
Any way i am feeling better about this dear one and the two who are already here, so thank you for your help
Wow, who needs enemies with friends as brutal as that! Well meaning or not she shouldn;t be undermining you and making you doubt yourself like that. Glad you are feeling better about it all. As long as you and your DH are on the same page and happy with how your family is going, don't listen to a word she says. In one ear and out the other!
Glad you are feeling better hun...don't let anyone put you down - that girl needs a good you know what! In my opinion, no one ever has the right to comment on your parenting or relationship with your partner and needs to be put back in her box! You will do fine with #3 i am sure...enjoy your pregnancy and your little family - they are only small or in your belly for a short time!!! xo
aww sweets!!
Ignore her! You are doing an amazing job as a mother! She is not an expert and she may just be the kind of person who needs to put others down and you shouldn't have to listen to her saying crap like that to you!!!
